practically everything they eat, wear or use—everything

or the factory. In buying from us these families are saving 
about fifteen million dollars annually, and this tremendous 
saving is matched by an equal advantage in quality, for it

never be sacrificed to reduce price. We have the most highly 
perfected methods of buying, making and marketing ever 
devised by any business institution. | We insure highest 
quality and lowest price by our perfect control of the source 
of supply, reaching back to the raw material in many lines, 
supplying carefully selected materials to carefully selected 
factories either owned or controlled by us, watching every 
step in the making through the eyes of our own trained 
experts; putting into the goods every possible improvement

Granite and Marble Monuments, Tombstones and Grave Markers 


ICH or poor, you cannot afford to pay the high prices charged for memorials in 
granite and marble under the old time method of unnecessary expense and long 


profits added to the actual cost of the raw material and labor before the monu- 


ment, tombstone or marker reaches your cemetery. 


Long profits to the wholesale dealer are necessary to his extra expenses and long 
time credits extended to the retail dealer; the long profits of the retail dealer are neces- 
sary to his method of selling the finished work to you by the use of the commissioned 
salesmen, and the long profits of the commission agent are necessary to his very existence, 
because he must make from one week’s to one month’s salary out of one sale, all of 
which you pay in the price charged you when you buy a monument, tombstone or marker 
by the old fashioned method. 

Quarry to cemetery is our enterprising, up to date method of furnishing you the 
highest grade of Best Barre Granite, the highest grade of White Clouded Rutland 
Italian Marble, and the highest quality of Acme Blue Dark Vein Marble, at the actual 
cost to quarry the stone, carve, polish and letter it, adding only our one conscientious 
margin of profit, delivering them on board the cars at the quarry in Vermont, at such 
“live and let live” prices that we place them within the reach of rich and poor alike, 
enabling any and all to honor the graves of their dead within their means. 

We do all this and more. We guarantee each and every piece of granite and 
marble to be the highest of high quality, the workmanship to be the finest and best 
products from the hands of the highest skilled granite and marble craftsmen. We 
guarantee the shipment to reach you in perfect condition, ready to set up in the cemetery, 
lettered exactly as you have instructed us, or your money will be returned to you, together 
with any freight charges you may have paid. 

A memorial in granite or marble is a purchase you make perhaps but once in a 
lifetime, and the average citizen is not inclined to question the price asked him after he 
is shown a design that pleases him. 

Intrinsic value of the stone and workmanship may be unknown to you, and you pay 
the enormous figure asked on account of the intermediate expenses and long profits that 
have already been added to the first cost of the material. 

Since you do not know what it costs to quarry, what it costs to shape, carve, polish, 
finish and letter the tombstone or monument, you are at the mercy of a few combined 
interests or the traveling commission agent of some distant monument company. 

At our wonderfully low prices you have the assurance and guarantee that each and 
every monument, tombstone or marker offered by us must please you in every particular 
when it reaches your home station, must be exactly as illustrated and described in this 
catalog, must be the best value you ever saw at anything like the price, or you have only 
the small task of notifying us to return your money and write you how to dispose of the 
shipment. 





Such a daring offer, such a willingness to risk a total loss, such a liberal proposition 
for the protection of the purchaser of granite and marble memorials was never heard of 
until established and maintained by us. 

Don’t forget this would mean a total loss of the cost of all the material, the cost of 
all the skilled workmanship of shaping, carving, polishing, finishing and lettering, includ- 
ing the cost of the freight for transporting it to your home station. Whether you live 
in the New England States or on the Pacific Coast, we do not hesitate to make this daring 
offer, because our years of experience have shown us that each and every one of our 
customers for memorials in granite and marble have been glad to write us a testimonial 
that the material, workmanship, beauty of finish and everything in connection with each 
shipment has been all and more than we claim for it in the pages of this catalog. 

Best Barre Granite is only obtainable from the best quarry in the Barre Mountains 
of Vermont, and all substitutes from nearby quarries in the broad area of territory 
sometimes known as the Vermont district, are of less value, being from recently opened 
quarries whose depths have not yet been opened up to the rich strata lying far below. 
Best Barre Granite comes from the oldest and earliest worked quarries now operating 
far below the less perfect surface material. We handle Best Barre Granite, and none 
other. 

Our Dark Vein and White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble is to be obtained only 
from the best developed strata in the veins of the Rutland district in Vermont. It stands 
first and foremost among all marbles for its close texture, its hardness and durability 
under years of exposure to the elements in the cemeteries throughout the country. Both 
Acme Blue Dark Vein Marble and our White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble are too 
well known throughout the world for us to praise their quality. They are well known 
to be harder and to stand the weather exposure better than imported Italian marble, 
which is best used for interior work and statuary purposes. 

Finishing our granite and marble memorials in large numbers, by the most econom- 
ical methods, subject to none of the expenses incident to the old fashioned, high priced 
and long profit methods, it is no wonder you will be asked $100.00 for a monument, 
where our price will be less than $60.00; or $30.00 to $50.00 for a tombstone and 
marker, where our.price will be about $20.00 to $30.00, and the wonderful difference in 
these prices, even after you have paid the freight to your home station, makes it your 
duty to yourself, your family and your friends to entrust your order for a monument, a 
tombstone or a marker to us under our unlimited, binding guarantee that the material and 
workmanship will be of the best, that the shipment shall reach your home station free 
from mar, scratch or injury in transportation, that the value shall be greater than anything 
you ever saw before at anything like the price, or your money will be returned to you.

Sear. Roebuck ead Co., Chiesa TUN 


We handle tons of granite and marble, where others buy pounds, and we give you 
the full benefit of a low cost to quarry, adding only the wages of the skilled workers 
who shape, polish, engrave and letter, and our one conscientious profit. 


Only the highest paid skilled artisans are employed, men whose lives have been 
devoted to this class of work, fitting them for turning out a product superior in every 
respect. 


Rigid inspection is given to every piece of granite and marble entering into these 
wonderful values in grand monuments, dignified tombstones and beautiful markers, both 
before the cutting of the block to size, after the block is squared, and step by step and 
day by day as the work proceeds, the eye of the inspector is ever on the piece of stone, 
that neither blemish nor flaw detrimental to its appearance or its lasting qualities is 
overlooked. When such is found, it is thrown aside, the bad spot cut away, and the 
remaining perfect part used for a smaller tombstone or marker. 


Utmost precaution under the sharp eyes of these highly trained inspectors assures 
our customers that they will receive a class of cemetery work such as is seldom, if ever, 
found in the stock of any retail dealer. 


Make your selection from the pages of this catalog, and send us your order for the 
smallest marker, the handsomest tombstone or the biggest monument shown in these pages, 
and we guarantee to take all the risk of making it to order for you, carving it, polishing 
it, finishing it exactly as described and illustrated, lettering it exactly as you instruct us, 
boxing it carefully and shipping it to your home station, taking all the additional risk 
of the freight charges and the total loss of our entire investment if it does not prove to 
be all and more than we claim for it, the greatest value you ever saw at anything like 
the price. Could there be anything more convincing? 


Do not delay your order and then expect it in time for any given date, such as 
Memorial Day, without taking into consideration the time required to finish, letter and 
ship, carefully given underneath the prices of each size and design. In addition to the 
time required for executing the work, lettering and shipping it, do not forget to allow 
ample time for a freight shipment to reach you from the state of Vermont, feeling 
assured that when it arrives you will be glad to send us a testimonial of the appreciation 
of yourself, your family and your friends of its astonishing value and beauty. 


ABOUT THE FREIGHT 


While the wonderfully low prices quoted in this catalog are for cemetery work 
safely boxed and delivered on the cars in Vermont, and the freight must be paid by you, 
yet you will find the freight charges will amount to next to nothing compared to what 
you will save in price, even after you have paid the freight to your home station. If 
you live in the West, our Vermont quarry and works may seem a long distance away, 
but remember the freight is low on finished granite and marble and do not let the 
distance deter you from ordering. The weights are carefully given opposite each price, 
estimated as closely as it is possible without weighing each and every shipment separately 











after it is boxed, and on page 108 we give the railroad freight rates to a few points in 
your state. To points east of the Mississippi River, north of the line of the Ohio River, 
the freight averages only 25 cents to 62 cents per 100 pounds, according to the distance 
from Vermont. West of the Mississippi River and east of the Rocky Mountains, 
averages only 48 cents to $2.00 per 100 pounds. From this you will observe the 
freight on our No. 61D5320, illustrated and quoted on page 21 at $3.60, weighing 150 
pounds, will only amount to 40 cents to 93 cents east of the Mississippi River and north 
of the Ohio River, and 62 cents to $3.00 between the Mississippi River and the Rocky 
Mountains. If you live in the New England States the freight will be very little, on 
account of the location of the quarry and works in Vermont. Send us your order, and 
we know we can furnish you with a tombstone or monument at a price, even with freight 
added, that you cannot possibly duplicate in your home district. We know that we can 
save you at least one-half on your purchase, and furnish you a finer and better finished 
monument than you can obtain anywhere else at anything like the price. 


WE DO ALL THE LETTERING FOR YOU. The tombstone reaches you 


complete, all ready to set up in the cemetery. 


INSCRIPTIONS ON GRANITE 


The wonderful hardness of Best Barre Granite makes all tool cutting slow and 
difficult, but the following prices for lettering are within the reach of all: Ordinary V 
sunk letters, length, | inch or under, 10 cents each; 1!/2 inches or under, 12 cents each. 
Where raised letters are desired, the prices will be for letters 1!/2 inches or under, 
raised 1% inch, 45 cents each; 2!/,-inch letters raised 1/4 inch, 60 cents each; 4-inch 
letters raised 3 inch, $1.35 each. Do not confuse the prices of lettering on granite with 
the prices of lettering on marble. For prices on other sizes of granite letters see page 73. 
Inscriptions on marble quoted on page 19. 


INSCRIPTIONS ON MARBLE 


For plain V sunk inscription letters, 1/4 inches and under, suitable for the name 
and dates of birth and death, we charge 6 cents per letter on all marble markers, marble 
tombstones and marble monuments, illustrated on pages 20 to 67, and small V sunk 
verse letters, 214 cents per letter, when left entirely to our artist, who lays out the work 
to the best advantage on the space or spaces shown on the design you select. When 
raised letters are desired for those in lengths of 11/4 inches or under and raised Y@ inch in 
panel, we charge 15 cents per letter, and larger sizes in proportion. See page 19 for 
prices of larger sized letters on marble. Do not confuse these prices for marble 
inscriptions with lettering on granite. See page 73 for prices on granite letters. If 
German, Old English, gilded, or other fancy letters are desired, the prices will be double 
those we quote, whether in granite or marble inscriptions. When sending your order, 
be sure to write the inscription very plainly, so there will be no delay or mistakes, and we 
will send you a typewritten confirmation of the inscription that you may see that we have 
it exactly correct, at the same time we are making the monument, tombstone or marker 
to order, ready for lettering while you are signing and returning to us the typewritten 
confirmation of the inscription.

The Age of Concrete 


Artificial composite stone or concrete has become a fixed commodity in this age of 
improvement, and while the crushed stone used decides its color according to the district 
from which it is obtained, yet the whiteness so much desired can only be obtained from a 
limited number of districts, where the whiter crushed stone may be obtained. While pure 
white is not obtainable anywhere, the lightest known is to be found in our artificial 
composite stone flower box and garden seats illustrated on this page.

or wish to make the approach to the house attractive, whether the grounds are large or

Hercules Wrought Steel Ornamental Fence 


HE home beautiful is never so complete, never so attractive as when the 

approach is ornamented with our beautiful Hercules Wrought Steel Fence. 

Compared with the added dignity and beauty which this artistic yard 

enclosure brings to your home, the extra cost is a mere trifle. You are no 

doubt proud of your home, proud of your lawn with its flowers and shrub- 
bery; then why not make the picture complete and pleasing to the eyes of not 
only yourself and family, but pleasing to your neighbors as well, by improving 
with the best fence obtainable—Hercules Wrought Steel Indestructible Fence? A 
glance at the illustration on opposite page will give you a fair idea of how your 
own home would look as improved with our attractive and durable Hercules 
Wrought Steel Fence. 

Fifty-one cents to 70 cents per running foot is the price at which we furnish 
Hercules Wrought Steel Fence in heights from 380 inches to 48 inches, according 
to the more complete specifications given in the following paragraphs. The price 
we quote on this fence is so much lower than what is usually asked for wrought 
steel fence of this character that you will need to read the description thoroughly 
to fully realize the tremendous saving we can make you. 

The rigid construction of our Hercules Wrought Steel Fence is worthy of 
particular mention. Honest materials, honestly put together and designed by men 
who have made a lifelong study of good fence requirements—that is why our 
Hercules fence, once carefully erected, is good for more than a lifetime of wear 
and brings a feeling of pride and satisfaction always. 

The wrought steel pickets used in the construction of Hercules fence are 25 per 
cent stronger than those made of iron and represented by some dealers as steel. 
Our experience proves that 7-16-inch wrought steel pickets, spaced 4 inches apart, 
and 8 inches from the ground, have plenty of strength without appearing clumsy, 
and we use them on all sizes of Hercules fence except the 48-inch, on which we use 
%-inch pickets. 

The steel channel rails, 14x%-inch, which are used in the construction of 
Hercules fence, as against angle rails used by some manufacturers, are like two 
to one in point of strength, channel rail having practically double the strength 
of angle rail, beside giving the fence a finished appearance from the inside, which 
is not found where angle rails are used. The pickets are set in the channel rail 
by a specially designed machine, making practically a one-piece construction which 
prevents the pickets from ever becoming loose, as they often do in some makes of 
fence. 

The malleable iron ornaments we use are much stronger and less liable to break 
than cast iron ornaments commonly used for this purpose. Every ornament is 
solidly riveted to prevent its becoming loose or falling off. 





Steel bar line posts. All line posts are included in the per foot price of the 
fence, and are made of solid steel bar with heavy angle iron plate for anchor, 
braced by angle iron from anchor to post, a very rigid and durable form of con- 
struction. Line posts are placed as near 8 feet apart as the space will permit, and 
midway between the line posts we place a substantial supporting foot with anchor, 
which positively prevents sagging. 

Corner, end and gate posts are made of heavy cast iron, 4 inches square, as 
shown in illustration, and weigh 75 pounds for the 80-inch and 36-inch, 90 pounds 
for the 42-inch, and 105 pounds for the 48-inch fence. They are not included in 
the per foot price quoted. For the 80-inch and 86-inch fence add $3.00 for each 
corner, end and gate post needed. For the 42-inch add $3.50, and for the 48-inch 
add $4. 00 for each corner, end and gate post needed. 


The wrought steel, self closing gates. The manner of construction insures per- 
fect resistance against both use and abuse. Hinges and latch are made of malleable 
iron and spring steel. These gates will open either way and are self closing. All 
gates should be measured in with the fence, and then add $2.50 for each single 
walk gate 3 feet wide, and $5.00 for a double driveway gate 9 feet wide, if required. 
The driveway gates are extra braced to prevent sagging, a very common fault with 
gates that are not so carefully made.

labor in a modern factory equipped with specially designed machinery for the 
purpose. Our supervision of the manufacture during every process insures your

Atlas Wrought Steel Ornamental Fence 


OR service and durability there is no better fence made than Atlas Wrought 

Steel Fence. The same high standard of construction described in our Her- 

cules fence applies as well to Atlas fence. Vhe lower price is brought about 

by sacrificing the ornamentation on the under side of the top channel rail 

and by the use of corner, end and gate posts of fancy openwork design 
equally rigid and substantial. The illustration on opposite page shows how Atlas 
Wrought Steel Fence adds to the dignity and beautiful appearance of the home. 
Picture in your mind how much satisfaction and pride you would derive from 
seeing this fine fence erected in front of your own property. The same good taste 
that creates beautiful homes with well kept lawns calls also for an artistic orna- 
mental fence, as much for protection as for mere beauty, and Atlas Wrought Steel 
Fence answers the call pertectly. 

At 40 cents per running foot for the 80-inch and upward, according to height, 
to 95 cents for the 60-inch fence, you can beautify your property with Atlas 
Wrought Steel Fence, thus securing a lifetime of fence satisfaction at a reasonable 
price. You save about 25 per cent at this price, compared with what other dealers 
ask for fence claimed, but not proven, to be just as good. Read the specifications 
earefully and you will find that nowhere else can you buy fence of such high 
standard of quality for anywhere near our price. Atlas fence comes completely 
finished and painted a rich glossy black. 

The scientific construction of Atlas Wrought Steel Fence is the result of years 
of study and practice in fence requirements, combined with the carefully carried 
out plans of the best designers of ornamental fence, and when you have an Atlas 
fence erected on your grounds you will find you have made a wise investment. 
You will find many points of superiority if you carefully consider wrought steel 
fence as compared with cheaply constructed iron fence offered by some manufac- 
turers. Superior material, design and workmanship give a distinction to this 
fence which marks the difference between mere fence and the perfect Atlas Wrought 
Steel Fence. 

Wrought steel pickets are used in the construction of Atlas fence. They cost 
more than the iron pickets used by some manufacturers, but experience proves 
they stand the strain, and we spare no expense to bring our wrought steel fence 
up to just what the name signifies—wrought steel fence. The price list on opposite 
page specifies the thickness of steel used for pickets in the various heights of fence. 
In all sizes of Atlas fence up to and including 48 inches high, the pickets are spaced 
4 inches from center to center. The 54-inch and 60-inch fence have the pickets 
spaced 5 inches from center to center. In all sizes the pickets are set 3 inches from 
the ground. 

Wrought steel channel rails are used in Atlas fence in preference to angle rails. 
Most manufacturers use angle rails and the casual observer does not notice the dif- 
ference, but the use of channel rails stiffens the panels and prevents the tendency 
to sag in the center, which you have no doubt noticed in some iron fences. In the 
80-inch fence 1x%4-inch channel is used; the 86, 42 and 48-inch are made with 








1yx%-inch channel rails, and the 54 and 60-inch have 14%x%-ineh rails. Channel 
rails also give the fence a better appearance from the inside than angie rails. 

The ornaments used on pickets, posts and gates are all made of malleable iron, 
practically unbreakable, and they are all firmly riveted to prevent their becoming 
loose or falling off. Missing ornaments on posts or pickets mar the beauty of orna- 
mental fence. 

Rigidly anchored line posts are one of the features of our wrought steel fence, 
as you will see by referring to illustration of line post on this page. Line posts 
are placed as near 5 feet apart as space will permit and each panel has a center 
support with a good solid anchor which positively prevents sagging. 

Notice the beautiful posts used for corners, ends and gates with Atlas Wrought 
Steel Fence. While they are lighter in weight and therefore cheaper than the heavy 
strong cast iron posts shown in connection with our Hercules fence, they are 
artistic in design and equally strong tor their purpose, and will give the same 
good service as the heavier post. Corner, end and gate posts are not included in 
the per foot price, but are charged extra at $2.00 to $3.50 each, according to height 
of fence, as shown in schedule of prices on opposite page. 

Wrought steel self closing gates of the same high grade construction as fur- 
nished with our higher priced Hercules fence are furnished with Atlas fence, except 
that not quite so much ornamentation is used. All gates must be measured in with 
the fence, and then add $2.50 extra for each single walk gate 38 feet wide, and 
.00 extra for a double driveway gate 9 feet wide, if required. The driveway gates 
are solidly braced to prevent sagging. 

Atlas Steel Fence is not an expense but a paying investment when you con- 
sider how much it will increase the value and attractiveness of your property; 
an investment that will pay daily dividends of pleasure and protection. In looking 
over your neighborhood you will see that the finest and most comfortable looking 
places are those enclosed with an ornamental fence. You have no doubt learned 
from past experience that it pays to buy the best. That is just why our wrought 
steel fences are the right fences for you. The original cost may be a little higher 
than some other style of fence, but because the cost per year of satisfactory service 
is so small, wrought steel fence appeals directly to the economical buyer. 

Make out your order now, giving us a small sketch showing entire length of 
fence wanted with position of gates plainly marked. Make sure that all your meas- 
urements are correct. We guarantee the fence to reach you in perfect condition, 
ready to erect according to your order, and we guarantee it to please you in every 
particular. Our guarantee is an insurance protecting you against any disappoint- 
ment or dissatisfaction. This system of dealing is directly responsible for the 
steady growth of this institution. Thousands of home owners have learned that 
our guarantee means a saving of considerable money in the purchase of ornamental 
fence, and a positive protection against dealers who care more for present profit 
than for future patronage.

Vulcan Wrought Steel Ornamental Fence 


UBSTANTIAL wrought steel fence at such a low price is another convincing 

proof that we are continually striving to furnish our customers the best fence 

at the lowest price. At 82 cents per running foot this 80-inch high wrought 

steel fence of beautiful design and high grade construction is a remarkable 

value that has never been equaled by any fence manufacturer for fence of the 
same quality of material and perfect construction. Troin 82 cents per foot for the 
fence 30 inches high, up to 99 cents per foot for the 60-inch fence, offers you a 
range of prices front which you can order a fence to suit your requirements with a 
comparatively small investment. 

At 32 cents per running foot and upward, the cost of enclosing your grounds 
with Vulcan Wrought Steel Pence is brought down to a point where you cannot 
afford to leave your premises open or practice false economy by using unsightly 
wooden pickets or plain board fence. Supposing your lot to be 50 feet wide, the 
entire cost of ornamenting the front with Vulcan Wrought Steel Fence 36 inches 
high, complete with one single walk gate 3 feet wide, and one double driveway gate 
9 feet wide, and all the necessary end posts and gate posts would amount to only 
$42.50 on board the cars at the factory in Indiana, This would make a valuable 
improvement to your property at a small cost. 

Vulcan Wrought Steel Fence is made of the same high grade materials and with 
the same perfection of detail as our Hercules and Atlas fence described on the 
preceding pages. You will notice by referring to the illustration the plain but 
pleasing design without ornamentation of any kind except as shown on the gate 
and on the corner posts, end posts and gate posts. For those who do not care for 
a highly ornamented fence our Vulcan design will fill every requirement and give 
the same satisfactory service as the more fancy and therefore higher priced fences. 

The pickets are spaced 4 inches from center to center on all sizes of Vulcan 
fence up to and including 48 inches high. On the 54 and 60-inch fence the pickets 
are spaced 5 inches from center to center. Vulcan pickets are made from the same 
grade of steel used in our higher priced fence and are secured to the channel rails 
in a manner to prevent their ever becoming loose. The schedule on opposite page 
shows the thickness of pickets used on the various heights of fence. 

The channel rail used in Vulean fence varies in size according to the size of 
fence it is intended for, the proper size being determined from the experience of 
many years of fence manufacture. All sizes of fence up to and including 48 inches 
high are made with wrought steel channel rail 144x% inch, excepting the 30-inch 





fence, on which the channel rail is 1x% inch. The 54-inch fence has 14%x%-inch 
channel and the 60-inch has 1°4x5¢-ineh channel. 

Line posts are included in the per foot price of the fence and are placed as near 
8 feet apart as the space will permit. To further strengthen the fence and prevent 
the panels from sagging in the center substantial supporting feet with anchors are 
placed midway between the line posts. The line posts furnished with Vulcan fence 
are the same as supplied with our higher priced Hercules and Atlas fence. 

Mnd, gate and corner posts are not included in the per foot price of Vulcan fence, 
but are charged extra at from $2.00 to $8.50 each, according to size of fence as 
shown in price list on opposite page. The same substantial and beautiful openwork 
design of end posts, corner posts and gate posts used on our Atlas fence is also 
supplied for Vulcan fence. The ornamentation on this openwork post adds just the 
right touch of style to make this fence most pleasing to the eye. 

The gates are substantial, made of the finest material to match the design of 
the fence as shown in the illustration. The ornaments made of malleable iron are 
firmly attached to the gates with rivets. Vulcan gates are self closing and open 
either way from either side. All gates should be measured in the line of fence, 
adding $2.50 extra for each single walk gate 3 feet wide, and $5.00 extra for a 
double driveway gate 9 feet wide, if required. 

Send us your order for a wrought steel fence and you will be sure of having 
the very best, rather than experiment with cheaply constructed fence of doubtful 
quality. When you have one of our wrought steel fences erected on your grounds 
your home at once takes on a new dignity and attractiveness that very materially 
increases its value so that the original cost of the fence becomes a profit rather 
than an expense. No matter which style of wrought steel fence you order from 
these pages, you have our positive assurance that it is the very best fence that 
could possibly be made for the price and that you are saving an amount of money 
equal to the usual dealer’s profit. 

We guarantee wrought steel fence to be everything we claim for it, and that it 
will give you entire satisfaction. It will reach you in perfect condition ready to be 
set up, painted a nice glossy black, and plainly printed instructions accompany 
sach fence so that anyone can erect it properly with the ordinary tools commonly 
found in every home. You can order without hesitation and feel assured that if 
everything is not entirely to your satisfaction in every respect we stand ready to 
make it satisfactory and will return your money to you with instructions for 
returning the fence directly back to the factory.

Beechmont Wire Fabric Ornamental Fence 


EAUTIFY your home with one of the handsomest ornamental fences ever offered 
by us or anyone else at anything like the price. Your front lawn, your side yard, 
suggests the thrift and comfort within, exactly according to the effect upon the 
eye as you approach it. Appropriate furnishings within are unknown to the 

passerby, except as suggested by the care taken with the approaches to the house. 


At 34 cents per running foot and upward you can accomplish this pleasurable effect 
on yourself and your friends as they approach your home by the use of this, our choicest 
design of steel and galvanized wire fencing, our Beechmont Ornamental Lawn Fence. 


Thirty-four cents and upward, according to the height desired, and you can be 
supplied with it in five heights from 34 cents to 46 cents per running foot, exactly as 


illustrated and priced on opposite page as Catalog Nos. 61D5190 to 61D5194. 


Beechmont Ornamental Fence enjoys the distinction of original symmetry and 
beautiful design. Its dignity elicits praise not attracted by any other make. You can 
appreciate these facts by carefully noting the illustration on opposite page and comparing 
it with any fence offered by any other manufacturer at anywhere near the price. 
Observe the tubular steel corner and gate posts 134 inches in diameter. The line posts 
are also 134 inches in diameter, and are included in the measurements of the fence at 
its price of 34 cents per running foot and upward. These line posts are set as near 
7 feet apart as space will permit. Note the tubular top rail on which the cresting is 
mounted is furnished 14 inches in diameter, while the malleable crestings attached to it 
are of the strongest, most ornamental design ever furnished by us or anyone else. 


Thirty-four cents per running foot and upward includes the galvanized twisted wire 
fabric, exactly as illustrated, with its overlapped and interwoven cable wires, joined in 
genious construction to make it strong, close, firm and providing for contraction and 
expansion of heat and cold of the varying seasons. Note the total height to the top of 
the cresting is 7 inches greater than the height of the fabric alone. 





Beechmont Ornamental Fence is equipped with twisted wire pickets, interwoven 
exactly as the illustration clearly shows, and while all our wire fabric is stronger than 
any fabrics offered in any other fencing, yet the fabric used in this, our Beechmont 
Ornamental Fence, at 34 cents per running foot and upward, excels in its extra center 
twisted wire, making the lower division so close that poultry and small animals do not 
pass between. The 24-inch fabric has four line wires, the 30-inch fabric five line wires 
and an extra line wire is added for each additional 6 inches in height, giving the 48-inch 
fabric eight line wires. 


While on the other pages we show a most attractive assortment of ornamental fencing 
of like character to this, our beautiful Beechmont pattern, and while we guarantee them 
all on their separate and distinct merits, yet we cannot avoid pressing upon you the extra 
strength and beauty of this, our Beechmont Ornamental Fence at 34 cents to 46 cents 
per running foot, according to height selected. 


We furnish double drive gates, double walk gates, and single gates, exactly as 
desired, and only add the small price of 55 cents extra per running foot for the width 
of each gate, added to the full lineal measurement of the fence, so that, for example, 
a 3-foot gate costs $1.65, added after measuring in the full length of the fence, including 
the gate. 


All line posts are measured in and included in the price of the fence itself, but 
each gate post, end post or corner post we furnish at an extra price of 66 cents each, 
although in measuring the full length of fence required these posts should also be 
included in the measurement. 


Select the height of fence desired from the catalog numbers given on the opposite 
page, sending us a rough sketch with correct measurements of the lawn, yard or lot, 
locating each gate accurately, and we guarantee to fill your order correctly for any size 
or form of grounds.

the end posts, corner posts and gate posts. 


All intermediate line posts are measured in at the per foot price of the fencing. 
All posts and top rails are made of the same highest of high grade tubular steel, fully 
described on page 13 in connection with our famous Beechmont Fence and, except for 
the difference in ornamentation and the style of fabric used, is in every way equal to it 
in strength, durability and merit. The line posts are set as near 7 feet apart as space 


permits. 

Double drive gates, single drive gates, double walk gates and single walk gates 
can be furnished in any of the standard widths. Each and every one of them is made 
strong and durable, with hinges and corners of high grade malleable iron to stand a 


blow without breaking, and the gate frame is made from steel tubing to match fence.

or lot, locating each gate accurately, and we guarantee to fill your order correctly for 
any size or form of grounds. 


Erecting Our Omamental Fence. The erection of our ornamental fence is a simple 
matter. Anyone, even though he is not a mechanic, can erect our fence and make it 
substantial. With every shipment we send printed instructions, and with the tools to be 
found in and about the average home, the fence may be erected without trouble. 
Practically the only tools needed are a wrench and shovel. Our fence is made 
accurately and according to the specifications sent us, and everything is carefully guarded 
so that no inconvenience is experienced by our patrons. Our only suggestion is that 
when you erect our fence, do it well. We make it as good as skill and workmanship 
can devise, and if you will use the same care in its erection you will have no occasion 


to regret having adorned your property with our ornamental fence.

Homelawn Wire Fabric Ornamental Fence 


A DEMONSTRATION OF VALUE GIVING THAT MEANS A BIG SAVING FOR THOSE SHREWD ENOUGH TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF Jitx 
HIGH GRADE ORNAMENTAL FENCE AT A PRICE BUT VERY LITTLE HIGHER THAN PLAIN WIRE FENCE. 


IGHTEEN cents to 29 cents per running foot, according to height, are the 
wonderfully low prices we make on this, our lowest priced ornamental fencing, 
exactly as illustrated on the opposite page, where the style of the fabric is plainly 

shown, and the absence of top crestings and top cable such as we illustrate on the 
preceding Pages at higher prices. The end posts and gate posts are made of the exact 
same high quality tubular steel, 134 inches outside diameter; the line posts are of the 
exact same tubular steel, but only 134 inches outside diameter; and the top rail is the 
exact same steel tubing, but only 11 inches outside diameter, as is furnished with our 
higher priced ornamental fences, fully shown and described on the preceding pages. 
The line posts are set as near 7 feet apart as space permits. 

Higher quality of material, higher grade of workmanship, or higher finish is not 
offered by any other manufacturer than we give in this, our lowest priced ornamental 
fence. 

Eighteen cents per running foot and upward means finished in glossy black on all 
the posts and top rails, the spear head post ornaments in aluminized finish, and the 


wire fabric heavily galvanized. 





Send us your order for this, our lowest priced but substantial Homelawn Orna- 
mental Fence, giving us accurate measurements of the space to be occupied, accurate 
location of the gates to be used, measuring in all end posts, corner posts and gates, 
adding only 55 cents extra per running foot for the width of each gate required, and 66 
cents each for all end posts, corner posts and gate posts. All line posts are included 
in the per foot price of the height of fence selected from Catalog Nos. 61D5210 to 
61D5214. 


On receipt of your order we will prepare the fence in exact lengths, ready for 
erecting, and ship it to you with the full understanding and agreement that if you do 
not find it to be all and more than we claim for it, made of the highest grade of tubular 
steel posts and rails, of the highest grade galvanized wire fabric, and greater value than 
you ever saw at anything like the price, you can hold it subject to our orders and we 
will give you instructions for returning it direct to our factory, and return you 
the full amount you have remitted us, together with any freight charges you have 
paid.

Marble Tombstones and Monuments 


Acme Blue Dark Vein Vermont Marble. There is no other marble except it be 
the White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble to compare with this wonderful material in 
closeness of texture, beautiful dark veining, the mirror polish it receives at the hands of 
skilled artisans, its noble response to the touch of the sculptor’s art, and its inde- 
structibility by ages of weather exposure. This beautiful marble from the native hills 
of Vermont is even superior to the much talked of imported Italian marble, when 
exposed to the action of the elements in all kinds of weather, for all time. 

White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble. This world famous material, polishing 
to its beautiful white mirror finish, with its light clouded effect, is of like closeness of 
texture, hardness and durability under ages of weather exposure as its companion marble 
from the adjacent Acme Blue Dark Vein quarries. The slight difference in price on 
the various designs illustrated in the succeeding pages does not indicate one iota of 
difference in the quality of the material, but the excess supply of the Dark Vein stock 
enables us to furnish it at a slightly reduced price. The fame of the White Clouded 
Rutland Italian Marble has gone before it, and we need not comment on its merits, as 
it is known too well to need our praise. To the lovers of emblems of purity for cemetery 
purposes, nothing can supplant our White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble. 





Our Insurance Against Disappointment. 


Send us your order for any tombstone or monument shown in the succeeding pages, 
and we will make it to order for you, sawing, carving, shaping, tracing, polishing and 
finishing it exactly as described, lettering it according to the inscriplion you furnish us, 
boxing it carefully and shipping it from the marble works in Vermont to your home 
station, with the distinct understanding and binding agreement that if it is not all and 
more than we claim for it, finished exactly as illustrated and described, lettered exactly 
as you have ordered it, arriving free from mar, scratch, injury or blemish of any kind, 
you can hold it subject to our disposal, at our own total loss, and we will return you the 
money you have remitted us, together with any freight charges you may have paid. 
This convincing offer and open proposition of insurance against disappointment places 
all the risk on us, and should convince you that you cannot afford to order a tombstone 
or monument elsewhere. 

We do all lettering for you. Do not confuse lettering on marble with lettering on 
granite. The prices quoted on this page do not apply to granite, but to marble only.

Why Not Protect Lonely Single Graves? 


Our Wire Grave Guards with arch and hanging basket, strongly 
built with angle steel frame and heavy corner posts for sinking into 
the ground, will shield a single grave from intrusion, and its wire 
arch and hanging basket will ornament it. This wire guard is 
strongly built of angle steel, firmly fastened by bolts, and the sides 
made of heavy woven wire. It is well painted in green to protect it } 
from weather exposure, and we only furnish it in this one color. It is 
taken apart and shipped closely packed, but is readily placed in 
position by boy or man. The heights of the various sizes given are of [or 
the wire fabric, and do not include the angle steel legs which are to 
be driven in the ground. They come painted green only.

Our Forefathers Used Them; Why Not We? They Are Still Standing in the Old Churchyards and the Old Family Graveyards. You Recognize 
Them From These Illustrations and They Bring Tender Memories. 


These simple types of tombstones are still as popular with the people as they were with our forefathers, but not so popular with the manufac- 
turers of tombstones, since they do not bring the exorbitant prices and larger profits to be obtained from the more elaborate styles and designs. 

We feel that the wants of the people should be supplied. We present two types of these favorite tablets in White Clouded Rutland Italian 
Marble. ty ee edges and top of the tablets are polished, but the back is fine sand rubbed. All bases are sanded finish and mortised 2 inches deep 
to receive the tablet.

Beautiful Art Memorial at $14.00 to $22.80 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 

This beautifully traced and carved memorial is equally as attractive 
in the White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble as the illustration proves 
it to be in the Acme Blue Dark Vein Marble. The lamb is carved in 
full relief, and the soft gray effect in the dark marble is only equaled by 
the white fleecy finish given in the White Clouded Rutland Italian 
Marble. The freight will amount to next to nothing compared with the 
saving you will make. On page 108 we quote railroad freight rates to a 
few points in your home state. 

Make your selection from the three sizes we name below and order 
by the catalog number, indicating which of these two beautiful marbles 
you desire, and we will letter it exactly as you instruct us, guaranteeing 
it to be exactly as illustrated and described.

This Beautiful Low Roll Monument, $10.88 and Upward 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


At $10.88 for the world’s best Acme Blue Dark Vein Vermont Marble we 
furnish you the same quality, strength and hardness as in the world famous White 
Clouded Rutland Italian Marble at $12.48, and the difference is only in the color. The 
difference in the price is caused solely by the plentiful supply of the Dark Vein and the 
limited supply of the White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble. All the engraving, 
polishing, finishing and the lettering are done by hand. We do not use oxalic acid, and 
the workmen are the-most skilled that money can hire. We assure you the finest 
character of work and the lowest prices in the country. 


The rate of freight, as quoted on page 108 to a few points in your home state, is 
so very low that even after shipping this handsome modern tombstone from Vermont 
to your station it costs you much less than it would to buy it from any other marble 
company or any traveling commision agent, all of whom sell only by the old high 
price, long proft methods. This low roll design is traced with a vine of ivy and

READ THIS CUSTOMER’S LETTER AND BE CONVINCED. 
Sears, Roebuck and Co., Chicago, Tl. R. F. D. No, 3, Apollo, Penn. 
Dear Sirs:—To say I am _ well pleased with the tombstone would scarcely express half the 
satisfaction derived from this deal. Of the many hundreds of monuments and tombstones in this 








beautiful cemetery, none are more artistic in design and lettering than this one. It stands in 
the first. tier of lots, beside a much traveled public road, with only a low picket fence between 
the road and the memorial, and. the lettering is distinctly visible from the road, It cost me 


just exactly $45.75, and the best offer from a local agent was $76.00. If I had been at the 
quarry to boss the work I could not have pleased myself any better. 
Very truly yours, W. R. REMALEY.

$15.40 to $42.00 in Dark Vein Marble, Mirror Polished 
and Traced, Exactly as Illustrated 
$17.65 to $49.00 in White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


Every feature of this design appeals to 
the good taste of our customers and 
friends. Its simplicity is relieved by the 
traced flowers and traced columns, while 
the remaining polished surface leaves am- 
ple room for inscriptions in memory of 
the deceased. We highly recommend it 
in dark marble with its beautiful vein- 
ings, since it permits the ornamental trac- 
ing to stand out sharp and clear. 


































If this design meets your requirements 
in style, size and price, make your selec- 
tion by catalog number and price and we 
will gladly make it to order for you, 
shaping, polishing, finishing and lettering 
it exactly as you instruct us, binding our- 
selves that it will reach your home sta- 
tion free from mar, scratch or injury in 
transportation, or we will gladly return 
your money, together with any freight 
charges you may have paid. 


Vermont may seem a long distance from 
your home and you may hesitate to order 
on account of the freight charges. If 
you will refer to page 108 you will find 
where we quote the railroad rates of 
freight to a few towns in your home 
state, enabling you to determine how 
much we save you, even after you have 
paid the railroad charges. 


LETTERING EXTRA. The 
reason we price all our tomb- 
stones and monuments without 
the lettering is because the cary- 
ing of letters necessarily costs 
extra and some of our friends 
and customers require a_ large 
number of words, while others 
use very short inscriptions. Refer 
to page 19, where we quote 
prices on the various styles and 
sizes of letters carved in marble, 
and to page 72, where we illus- 
trate the preferred styles of let- 
ters.

Our Most Exquisite Design, $24.60 and $30.90 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


This magnificent monument with its 
elaborately engraved, carved and traced 
design is made with a scroll traced 
on the top in which the dates of 
birth and death and name of the de- 
ceased can be placed, at the low prices 
per letter quoted on page 19. The upper 
base is beautifully polished and affords 
an excellent location for the family 
hame, if it is desired, or, if not, the 
dates of birth and death can be placed 
upon this surface. The bottom base is 
of the exact same marble, not polished, 
but sand rubbed. 

















On pages 68 to 72 we show illustra- 
tions of the conventional styles of let- 
tering and publish a few choice selec- 
tions of memorial verses. 

At our prices of $24.60 and $30.90 this 
is a phenomenal value. The immense 
amount of intricate tracing and etching 
hecessary to produce this beautiful de- 
sign encourages small dealers and local 
marble companies to charge fabulous 
prices when imitating it. 

Turn to page 108, where we quote 
the freight rates on marble to a few 
points in your state. 


We especially recommend this 
monument in the world’s best Acme 
Blue Dark Vein Marble, as the trac- 
ing of the design stands out in a 
bright, clear gray against the dark 

polished surface. The 

design is very desirable 

in White Clouded Rut- 

land Italian Marble, but 

in the dark veined it 
7 a shows up to better ad-

$46.00 White Clouded Marble $60.00 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


Naturally you wart to have just as nice a 
tombstone or monument as any in your cemetery, 
and we enable you to do so by placing within the 
reach of all a monument which for beauty and 
elegance cannot be surpassed. Nothing could 
make a finer appearance or be more attractive for 
its style and workmanlike finish than this elegant 
tombstone with its carved drapery hanging grace- 
fully over one corner, its open book raised in 
relief on the top bevel and the design traced on 
the front, just as shown in the illustration. 

We offer it in two sizes of splendid proportions. 
Make your selection of the size and color you 
wish, send us your order and we will guarantee 
to finish it exactly as illustrated, made of the 
best grade of Vermont marble, carving any in- 
scription you may submit to us, and ship it to 
you with the full understanding and agreement 
that if you do not find it to be all that we claim 
for it and entirely satisfactory to you, we will 
not only return the money you have paid us, but 
will include any freight charges you may have 
paid. We further guarantee that it shall reach 
you free from flaw, serateh or injury in trans- 
portation, or we will replace any part or parts 
which may have become damaged. You have our 
assurance and our guarantee and we would be 
the loser if the tombstone did not prove to be all 
we represent it. 

LETTERING EXTRA. The prices quoted are 
for the tombstone only without lettering, and all 
inscriptions are charged for extra at the prices 
per letter quoted on page 19. By this method 
you pay only for the exact number of letters in 
the inscription you wish carved on the tombstone, 
On page 72 we show illustrations of the modern 
styles of lettering which we use. 

While our prices are quoted for delivery on the 
cars at the quarry in Vermont, the freight charges 
on monuments are exceedingly low. Do not let 
anyone convince you that it would not pay you 
to send for your tombstone on account of the 
freight charges, but refer to page 108, where we 
quote the railroad rates of freight to a few towns 
in your state, and you will find by computing the 
charges according to the weight quoted in con- 
nection with each catalog number and price, that 
you would still be able to make a large saving, 
even after paying the railroad chat iia

take by selecting one of these hand- 
some designs in either color or in

The graves of father and mother, brothers and sisters, or those who have been closely related in 
life, now laid side by side, cannot be more appropriately marked than by this double tombstone, a 
symbol of comradeship. The double tablet, with its carved edges and carved division in the center, is 
full polished, allowing plenty of room for the inscriptions desired. The upper base is polished on the 
four sides and will receive the family name in raised letters if desired. 

We furnish two sizes, each perfectly proportioned. Send us your order, according to the size and 
color you prefer, remembering that you have our guarantee that we will shape, carve and finish this 
double tombstone exactly as illustrated, letter it as you instruct us and ship it to you with the full 
understanding and agreement that it shall be all we claim for it, or we will return your money, 
tegether with any freight charges you may have paid. We further guarantee that it will reach you in 
perfect condition, or we will replace any part or parts that may have become damaged, free of expense 
to you. 

The prices quoted are for the tombstones without lettering. Inscriptions are extra, but you pay 
only for the exact number of letters in the inscription you desire. See page 19 for our prices on letters 
carved in marble. On page 72 we illustrate the popular styles of lettering we use. 

FREIGHT CHARGES. Do not imagine that the freight charges on monuments from the quarry 
would make it unprofitable to you to send us your order. Refer to page 108, where we quote the 
railroad rates of freight to a few towns in your state, and you will find by calculating the charges on 
any tombstone according to the weights quoted, that you will be able to make a large saving on your

ing graves and have put 
it off from time to time 
on account of the ex- 
pense it would’ mean, 
why not erect one of

mean a saving in cost to 
you, but make a_splen- 
did appearance on any 
lot? 

Send us your order 
and we will guarantee to 
finish it exactly as illus- 
trated, polishing the die

a typewritten copy of the inscriptions, with an estimate of the price of the complete job, See page 72

Can you afford to neglect the graves of father and mother, brothers and sisters, or other relatives 
resting side by side, when for such a moderate sum you can secure this appropriate double tombstone ? 
The words Father and Mother can be changed for any other two words which may be desired. The 
tablet is full polished and the carved dividing line in the center allows plenty of space to the right 
and left for the inseriptions desired. We make this double tombstone in two sizes, and although the 
illustration shows the dark vein marble, it is equally as attractive in the white clouded marble. 





Send us your order, and when you consider that you are fully protected against disappointment 
or loss by our guarantee that if it is not all we claim for it and entirely satisfactory to you, and if 
it does not reach you free from mar, scratch or injury on the part of the transportation company,

become damaged in transit, free of expense to you, you will understand our confidence in the quality 
of material and workmanship which we are able to offer at these low prices. 


LETTERING EXTRA. We will carve any lettering you may desire, and since the prices quoted 
on this page for the tombstone are based on the actual cost of material and labor, the lettering is 
charged for extra at the price per letter quoted on page 19. The mecdern styles of letters which we 
use are illustrated on page 72. 


_ FREIGHT CHARGES, Even with the freight charges added, your saving will be a large one. The 
railroad companies carry tombstones and monuments at a low rate of freight, and by referring to page 
108, where we have listed the railroad rates of freight to a few towns in your state, you will be able 
to calculate about what the freight will amount to on any tombstone, since the weight of each size is 
quoted in connection with the catalog number and price.

illustration. The polished face of the die will r e the desired inscriptions satisfactorily.

New Castle, N. H. 
Sears, Roebuck and Co., Chicago, Ill. 

Gentlemen:—I have received the tombstones in fine condition and can truthfully say that they

SEE THE BEAUTIFUL BARRE GRANITE WORK ON PAGES 74 TO 107. 








At $39.50 to $86.00 in Acme Blue Dark Vein or White Clouded Rutland Italian 
Marble, according to size selected. it scarcely seems possible to more than pay for 
the beautiful material which enters into this elegant monument. Examine the illus- 
tration and the measurements carefully, noting the three large sizes in which it is 
made, then compare it with a monument of like size, style and quality offered by 
anyone else and see how much we save you, even after you pay the low rate of 
freight on finished marble. 


We use only the best grade of Vermont marble in either color, and you ean 
make no mistake by purchasing one of these monuments. 


Why we can sell at such low prices. Our “quarry to cemetery” plan is not sub- 
ject to any of the high expenses incident to the old fashioned, high priced, long 
profit selling methods. We have no losses by bad debts, nor do we pay high com- 
missions to traveling agents. We own the rough stock at the lowest possible cost 
to quarry; we shape, carve, finish and letter these fine products under the most 
approved, modern methods, making our prices to you based entirely upon the 
actual cost of material and labor, reserving for ourselves but our one conscientious 
margin of profit. 


MARBLE FOOT STONES AND CORNER STONES QUOTED ON PAGE 19. 





$39.50 and Upward for This Large, Massive Monument, 
According to Size and Color Preferred 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


You cannot afford to miss this opportunity of erecting a monument on your 
cemetery lot when we have made our prices so low as to place within the reach of 
all a big monument of such dignity and beauty as to attract the admiration of all. 
The large upper block or die is handsomely polished and traced on all four sides, 
just as illustrated, and the apex top is sand rubbed. The upper base, allowing plenty 
of space for the family name, is polished four sides, and the large bottom base is 
sand rubbed, altogether making this an ideal monument either for a family lot or 
Single grave. It is made in three sizes, each being perfect in proportion, and you 
can make your selection according to price and the color preferred. 

LETTERING ON MARBLE. We will carve any inscriptions you wish placed 
on the tombstone, and while lettering costs extra, by referring to page 19, where 
we list our prices for cutting letters in marble, you will find that the lettering 
is only a smail item. On page 72 we illustrate the popular styles of lettering which 
we use. 

Let us make you one of these tombstones in either Acme Blue Dark Vein 
Marble or White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble, lettering it exactly as you 
instruct us and shipping it to you under our guarantee that it must reach you 
without flaw, seratch or injury in transit, or we will replace any part necessary 
free of expense to you. We guarantee the material and workmanship to be all we 
claim for it and entirely satisfactory to you, or your money will be returned, 
together with any freight charges you may have paid. 

Freight charges on monuments are very low, and on page 108 we quote the 
railroad rates to a few towns in your home state, enabling you to estimate just 
how much we can save you.

earved in this highly polished dark surface. 

We guarantee the workmanship to be per- 
fect, the material to be unsurpassed, the let- 
tering to be done exactly as you order it, and 
the shipment to reach your home station in 
perfect order, free from scratch or injury of 
any kind. While the prices quoted are for this 
monument carefully boxed and delivered on 
the cars at the marble works in Vermont and 
the freight must be paid by you, yet you will 
find the freight charges will amount to next 
to nothing as compared with what you will 
save in price. Do not let the distance from 
Vermont to your home station prevent you from 
ordering, as the rate of freight on finished 
monuments is very low, as shown on page 108, 
where we tell how much the freight will be 
per 100 pounds to a few points in your home 
state.

PROMPT SHIPMENT, A SAVING OF ONE-HALF AND FREE FROM MAR OR SCRATCH. 
Sears, Roebuck and Co., Chicago, Tl. Hinton, Towa. 

Gentlemen :—We received the tombstone and are more than satisfied with it. The same size stone 
here would cost again as much. There wasn’t a scratch or mar on it. Thanking you for the prompt 


shipment, I remain, Yours truly, F

FREIGHT RATES TO YOUR HOME STATE ON PAGE 108. 


Sears, Roebuch and Co., Chicago, Ill. 59 


$17.50 to $47.00, According to Size 
and Color Selected 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


These low prices enable you to own a beau- 
tiful monument at such a moderate expense 
that it means an economy on your part to pur- 
chase one. The improvement in your cemetery 
lot and the satisfaction you will feel in having 
it appear as nice as any in the cemetery will 
make you wonder how it can be accomplished 
at such a small cost to you. The “Rock of 
Ages” design is one which has always been 
popular for monumental purposes and we fur- 
nish it just exactly as illustrated, with the 
shaft polished and traced on four sides. The 
cross and the words “Rock of Ages” are traced 
on the front only and are included in the 
price. ‘The upper base is polished four sides, 
intended to receive the family name of the 
deceased in raised letters if desired, and the 
big bottom base is sand rubbed. 


We make three sizes, each perfectly pro- 
portioned, and you can make your selection 
by catalog number and price of the color you 
prefer. The illustration shows the Acme Blue 
Dark Vein Marble, but it is equally beautiful 
in the White Clouded Rutland Italian, al- 
though the design tracing will show up to a 
little better advantage on the dark vein 
marble. 


We will carve any inscription you desire, at 
the prices per letter quoted on page 19. See 
page 72 for illustrations of the approved styles 
of letters which we use. 


The freight will amount to very little when 
compared to the saving you will make. On 
page 108 we quote the railroad rates of freight 
to a few towns in your state, enabling you to 
estimate the freight on any monument from 
the weight quoted in connection with each 
size.

have paid, or replace any part which may 
hive become damaged in transit, free of ex- 
pense to you.

Sears, Roebuck and Co., Chicago, Ml. 6l 


Most Expensively Carved and Finished Big 


Marble Monument for Only $29.40 


Delivered om the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


Our price of $29.40 means a large saving 
to you even after you pay the freight. 
Means that you will secure a monument 
which will compare favorably with any 
monument that is being retailed at a 
much higher price elsewhere. It means 
that you will secure a monument which 
is made of the very choicest Vermont mar- 
ble, the celebrated Acme marble quality, 
which is not obtainable anywhere else at 
anything like our price. 

It is generally supposed that the im- 
ported Italian marble is the best marble 
for monumental purposes, but it is a well 
known fact that Acme Blue Dark Vein 
Marble has stood identically the same test 
as the Italian marble and is even more 
impervious to atmospheric conditions than 
the Italian marble. 

See page 108 where we name the freight 
rates on monuments to a few points in 
your home state. 















































In the introductory pages of this eat- 
alog we tell you all about the cost of 
freight, all about how we can make these

$49.00 Modern, Up to Date Monument in Dark Vein 
Marble; Or White Clouded Italian Marble, $60.00 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 























































This new design in the variety of sizes 
and range of prices which we offer will 
enable you to erect a monument on your 
cemetery lot of which you will feel proud, 
and which has_ heretofore seemed beyond 
your means. You cannot afford to have 
your cemetery lot look neglected or to erect 
a stone which will be merely a memorial 
and nothing more as far as pleasing design 
is concerned, and will not add to the good 
appearance of your cemetery lot, when we 
place within the reach of all a monument 
which for quality, workmanship and beauty 
will equal any in the cemetery. The pur- 
chase of a tombstone is one which you make 
perhaps but onee in a lifetime, and of 
course you want the memorial which you 
erect to remain forever a tribute to your 
good taste and judgment. One of these 
tombstones, in any of its sizes and in 
either the dark yein or white clouded 
marble, with its polished cube set artistical- 
ly in the top of the shaft, which is polished 
four sides, its polished upper base intended 
to receive the family name in raised letters 
if desired, and its big sand rubbed bottom 
base, will more than please you, and attract 
the admiration of passers by. 

The lettering is charged for extra at the 
prices quoted on page 19 for earving letters 
in marble. We will carve any inscriptions 
you may desire, and on page 72 we show 
illustrations of the modern styles of letters 
which we use. 

The freight charges will not add ma- 
terially to the cost, since they are very low 
on monuments. See page 108, where we 
quote the railroad rates of freight to a few 
towns in your home state. 

Send us your order under our binding 
guarantee to please you or return the money 
which you have sent us, together with any 
freight charges you may have paid.

Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Marble Works in Vermont. 


Our artist has put forth his best endeavors to give you here an illustration of 
the exact appearance of this splendid monument, showing the beautiful veining 
of the world famous Acme Blue Dark Vein Marble, but it is equally as attractive 
and beautiful when made from White Clouded Rutland Italian Marble. 


Send us your order for one of these massive and imposing monuments, and 
we will make it to order, carving it and finishing it exactly as illustrated, lettering 
it exactly as you instruct us, guaranteeing it to reach your home station in

prove all and more than we claim for it, satisfactory to you in every particular, 
you can hold it subject to our orders, and we will not only return you the 
price you have paid for it, but will include any freight charges you may have 
expended. We take all the risk of pleasing you. Is there anything more we could 
do to show our confidence in the quality of the material, beauty of the design, and 
high grade of finish and workmanship? 


Do not let the distance from Vermont to your home station deter you from 
ordering, but remember, the freight is low on finished marble and we guarantee 
to save you money, even after you have paid the freight charges to your home sta- 
tion. On page 108 we quote the rate of freight to a few points in your state. 


Lettering on marble is quoted on page 19, where we give prices on various sizes.

on the front of the cross, all perfectly done by 
skilled workmen. We make four elegant sizes in 
either color, and the range of prices makes it pos- 
sible for anyone to erect a monument on their cem- 
etery lot which will be a source of pride and com- 
fort. When purchasing a tombstone you want the 
very best you can afford, and it is to your advantage 
to obtain full value for your money. 

Send us your order for the size and color you 
prefer, making your selection by catalog number and 
price, and it will be our aim and pleasure to ship 
you a monument which will prove all and more than 
we claim for it. We guarantee it to reach you in per- 
fect condition or to replace any part which may be- 
come damaged in transportation. 

LETTERING EXTRA. Give us a copy of the 
inscription you wish placed on the monument and we 
will carve it exactly as you instruct us, at the prices 
per letter quoted on page 19 for letters carved in 
marble. On page 72 we illustrate the modern styles 
of lettering which we use. 

The freight charges are very low on monuments 
and will amount to next to nothing compared with 
the saving we can make you. Refer to page 108, 
where we quote the railroad rates of freight to a few 
towns in your state.

O ASSIST those who may not have the opportunity to select for themselves, we 
T show here a collection of memorial verses used most frequently on tombstones 
and markers sold by us. The frequent requests of our many customers for us 
to furnish a verse suitable has encouraged us to present this collection and show 
the price of each verse when cut in marbie and when cut in granite. We have not 
attempted to furnish a large assortment of verse inscriptions, but trust these will be of 
service to those who may not have the opportunity to make a selection from other sources. 


Please do not overlook the difference in the price per letter between marble and granite. 


For prices on all sizes of marble letters see page 19. 


job do not fail to pay close attention to the price of granite letters shown on page 73,

Limoges Porcelain Portraits for 
Tombstones and Monuments 


A popular and appropriate manner of showing respect and affection to 
departed loved ones. 


Limoges Porcelain Portraits are ovals of clear white porcelain on heavy 
pure brazier’s copper. The porcelain being baked on at a high degree of 
temperature makes them practically imperishable and unaffected by heat, cold 
or moisture. They are set in a mortised recess in the monument in a manner 
which binds them to the stone so firmly that they become practically a part of 
the monument itself. 


The illustration on opposite page shows the beautiful appearance of these 
Porcelain Portraits when placed on a tombstone or monument. A reproduction 
from any picture is photographed directly in the porcelain and a finishing coat of 
transparent enamel glaze is baked over it, making a beautiful and permanent 
portrait in pure white porcelain which can be placed on almost any style of 
monument you select. 


The mark of respect and affection shown by placing an imperishable likeness 
on the monument of departed loved ones is becoming more popular as people 
come to see its beauty and appropriateness. 


In ordering a Limoges Porcelain Portrait for a monument give the catalog 
number representing the size you prefer, and send along with the order the 
photo you want copied on it. The picture on the porcelain will be an exact 
copy of the photo you send us, and the photo will be returned to you uninjured. 


The prices quoted include the Limoges Porcelain Portrait complete, set in 
any monument or tombstone ordered at the same time, just as described above, 
without any extra cost and guaranteed to be satisfactory in every particular. 


The illustration shows the Limoges Porcelain Portraits slightly reduced in 
size. The exact measurements to the outer edge of the five different sizes before 
setting the white margin in the under cut stone, are given in the following list of 
prices:

This illustration shows how these beautiful photo reproductions in pure white 
porcelain appear when placed on a monument, making an everlasting token and 
memorial of the loved one called away. 

The schedule on the opposite page gives the exact sizes and prices of Limoges 
Porcelain Portraits, reproduced from any photo you furnish and firmly set in any

When ordering a tombstone or monument do not fail to give careful con- 
sideration to the illustrations on this and the preceding page. If you have a 
photo of the deceased for whom you are contemplating erecting a marble or 
granite memorial, no more fitting evidence of affection can be shown than by 
placing one of these beautiful white porcelain portraits on the monument, and 
the complete cost is much less if ordered at the same time you are ordering the 
monument.

Barre Granite Monuments and Markers 


Dark Barre Granite for polished surfaces and Light Barre for fine hammer finished 
monuments: are world famed. Indestructible by weather exposure, and so hard that 
cutting from quarry, sawing in blocks, shaping into monuments, polishing to bring out 
the bright mirror like bluish mottled effect, carvings, tracings and lettering inscriptions, 
require the most laborious efforts by hand and machines; so hard that pneumatic tools 
must be used, guided by the hands of the most skilled craftsmen. Years ago we entered 
into the monument and tombstone business in marble only, applying to it our theory, 
principle and practical method of eliminating the large expenses and profits of the old 
high priced method of selling tombstones; eliminating the expenses and profits of the 
dealer in rough stock; eliminating the expenses and profits of the wholesale dealer in 
finished designs, and last, but most important, eliminating the profits and large com- 
missions of the traveling agent. The results are shown in the low prices we quote in 
the preceding pages of this book, where our marble cemetery work is so fully displayed. 


In the granite field we have applied the same principles and practical methods, own- 
ing our rough stock of the Best Barre Granite from the best strata in the Barre, Vermont, 
Mountains, loading it on cars, switching the cars to the granite mill and works adjacent 
to the quarry, unloading the immense blocks by automatic cranes and carefully drilling 
them with pneumatic power drills, separating them into the various size slabs and blocks 
required for the designs we show in the succeeding pages of this book. Then comes the 
more laborious task of shaping the smaller blocks into the designs desired for our cus- 
tomers’ orders, requiring automatic machines and flexible shafts with pneumatic tools 
attached. Our polishing is done to the highest perfection of mirror finish, and we do 
not “dope” our polished surfaces to cover flaws or give a color to the surface that is 
unnatural and will come off by weather exposure. If the polishing of a block develops 
a bad spot, we throw it out and cut it down to a smaller size to get rid of the bad spot 
or flaw and take a new block for the same job. Employing only the highest grade of 
highly skilled granite craftsmen, using only the most modern and efficient tools and 
machines, selecting only the highest of high grade blocks of granite for our work, we 
deliver on board cars for shipment to our customers memorials in granite unsurpassed 
by any other concern in the world, and at prices within the reach of all. 


POLISHED DESIGNS. In selecting a monument, tombstone or marker in 
granite, remember that the exceeding hardness of the material creates a cost in polishing 
that far exceeds that of marble. Therefore, we recommend that you do not ask us to 
polish any more of the surfaces than we illustrate in the succeeding pages, as the 
proportionate cost would be too great and the results not near so handsome or satisfactory 
as the way we illustrate them. 


ROCK FACE SURFACES. The irregular surface, known as the rock face 
surface, on a number of our granite designs, is most attractive and in great demand. 
While our illustrations show some regularity in the drawing or photograph, yet these 
rock face surfaces are very irregular, and every elevation and depression on them is 
different from the other. This irregularity of the rock face surface is its attractive 
feature. For this same reason we are only able to quote estimated weights instead of 
accurate weights, as this variation in the rock face surface makes a variation in the weight 
above and below our estimated weight. But in no instance will the weight vary more 
than 10 per cent above or below the weights we print. 


White surfaces on polished designs. These surfaces illustrate the unpolished 
appearance of the granite when rock faced, or when hammered, in tracing and margining 





the design of the polished surface. The beveled edges or wash cut are axed or 
hammered in the same manner. 


GRANITE MARKERS. In the illustrations of the granite markers without base 
will be observed a suggestion of a stub or rough butt below the ground, but we do not 
recommend them with the stubs, as the weight of the stub is three or four times as much 
as the finished part above the ground, and our customers much prefer to place them on a 
concrete bed made of crushed stone slushed in with cement, or gravel slushed in with 
cement, rather than pay the freight on the rough stub. Those who prefer these markers 
with the rough stub below the ground, all in one piece with the marker, can be supplied, 
but we cannot give the exact shipping weight, as the stubs are very irregular, no two 
of them being the same size, although uniform in length. 


LETTERING. We do all the lettering for you, and the monument or marker 
reaches you complete, all ready to set up in the cemetery. Do not confuse these prices 
with lettering on marble. Inscriptions on marble cost much less. For prices of lettering 
on marble see page 19. When sending your order be sure to write the inscription 
plainly so there will be no delay in writing you to verify the correctness of the 
inscription you desire placed on the granite work. We quote below prices on all styles 
of granite lettering.

$290.00 Celtic Cross $584.00 


Made of the Choicest Grade of Light Barre Granite. 
Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Granite Works in Vermont. 


To the lovers of Celtic art we do not need to address ourselves in praise of 
this design. To those familiar with Light Barre Granite, its flint like texture, its 
close grained crystals, its superior resistance to weather exposure, it needs no praise 
from us. 


This beautiful Celtic cross design in its various sizes, offered at the prices 
printed below, makes a noble memorial for any cemetery grounds. ‘The raised 
band panel across the center allows ample space for all ordinary inscriptions, 
and V sunk letters can be used (see low prices quoted on page 73) and be in per- 
fect harmony with the ornamental intaglio carving shown in the design of the cross. 
If raised letters are preferred, either cut square top as illustrated on page 81, or 
round top as illustrated on page 76 would be in perfect harmony with the round 
raised edges of the cross. 

The broad bottom base lends additional dignity and provides a wash cut or 
pitched bevel ranging from 8 inches on the smallest size to 12 inches on the largest 
size. 

While our prices are quoted delivered on the cars at the quarry and granite 
works in Vermont, yet on page 108 we quote the railroad tariff rates of freight on 
monuments to a few points in your home state, enabling you to determine whet it 
would cost you after paying the low rate of freight prevailing on monuments. To 
those interested in the largest size, the carload rate of freight would apply and be 
much less per 100 pounds than the rates we print on less than carload shipments.

Granite, boxing it carefully and shipping it to you with the distinct understanding and 
agreement that if it is not all and more than we claim for it, the highest of high class 
Best Barre Granite, does not prove to be of greater value than anything you could obtain 
elsewhere in like style, size and beauty at anything like the price, is not lettered exactly

portation, you can hold the entire shipment subject to our disposal and we will not only

To determine what it would cost you after you have paid the freight, refer to 
page 108, where we quote the railroad tariff rates to a few points in your home state.

would for the name Shelhouse, illustrated on this page. Refer to page 73 for the cost 
per letter when carved in granite.

$76.00 to $206.88 phi eatin au a ale 


Original and never offered before, but may be imitated hereafter by those who 
follow our lead and copy our ideas. A monument sketched for us, considered, 
reconsidered and resketched until the design was declared perfect in its own field of 
rugged beauty, relieved by its marginal corners, margined apex and margined polished 
panel. With perfection secured, we offer it at $76.00 and upward. 

Made of four separate blocks, consisting of bottom base, upper base, monument 
block or die, and a big projecting cap, all rock faced four sides, except the monu- 
ment block, and projecting cap is margined as illustrated. While we illustrate the 
family name on the upper base in rock faced letters and recommend it thus for 
appearance sake, yet we can furnish smooth hammered letters or polished surface 
raised letters in the same manner if desired. The monument block is made of Dark 
Barre Granite, the better to receive the dark mottled polished panel, as provided for 
any and all the additional inscriptions desired. The other three blocks are made 
of Best Light Barre Granite, the better to display a contrast with the middle block. 

Your order will receive our undivided attention, exactly as if it were the only 
monument we were carving. We will make it to order for you, exactly as illustrated, 
letter it in any manner you may require, taking all the risk of our binding guarantee 
that if it does not reach you free from mar, scratch or injury in transportation, is 
not lettered exactly as you have instructed us, and in the highest workmanlike 
manner, and prove a big saving to you, even after you have paid the freight, you 
can hold the entire shipment subject to our orders for disposal, and we will bear the 
total loss, returning you the money you have remitted us, together with any freight 
charges you have paid. 

Do you know how low the freight rates are on monuments? Refer to page 
108, where we name the freight rates to a few points in your home state, enabling 
you to calculate just how much you would save, even after the freight is paid. 

Lettering is extra, because no two orders specify the same quantity of lettering, 
but on page 73 we name our low prices per letter for any inscription you may desire 
carved

Examine the illustration of this monument, observe its magnificent projecting cap 
with its arched pediment front, its rock faced edges and fine hammered apex. Note 
the main body of the monument with its polished face and artistic tracing along the 
top line; it is mirror polished on two sides, but the leaf tracing is only on the face. 
The ends are rock faced. The main body rests upon an upper base that is rock faced 
on the four sides, with a provision made on the front for the family name in raised 
letters, and all this rests on the big heavy bottom base, which is rock faced all around. 


Order one of these magnificent pieces of workmanship and remember that we 
guarantee it to be finished exactly as we illustrate and describe it, lettered exactly 
as you order it, guarantee it to reach your station in perfect condition and please 
you in every particular, or your money will be returned, together with any freight 
charges you may have paid. The Barre mountains may seem a long distance from 
your home station, but do not let this influence you, as the freight rates on finished 
granite are very low, as fully shown on page 108, where we quote the freight rates to a 
few points in your home state. See page 73 for cost of lettering inscriptions on granite.

Art and Craft Hand in Hand Conceive and Create the Success We Here 
Present in Seven Sizes in Light Barre Granite at $81.00 to $385.00 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Granite Works in Vermont, 

The artist paused while modeling, stepped back to view his work so wonderfully 
unfolding and said, “Enough.” To have completed the execution of this wonderful 
design on all four sides alike would have been beautiful, but to pause at this stage of 
his work was to conceive anew, and declare the thought would live imperishable; and 
so it lives. 

The skilled artisan, with that grim determination born of constant geometrical 
precision and mechanical accuracy, cut, carved and shaped the imperishable rock, 
aiming to produce all four sides in equal harmony, until, the inspiration of the artist 
dawning, he stopped, and saw. ‘Thus, this beautiful design remains fixed; an artist's 
inspiration, grasped at last by the skilled workman and presented to you in Light Barre 
Granite as the most artistic memorial ever offered you at anything like the prices of 


$81.00 to $385.00. 


LIVES RIGHT IN VERMONT AND SAVED $100.00 ON NEXT TO SMALLEST SIZE.

finish, the general outline of it being very pleasing to all who have seen it. I know that I saved 
more than $100.00 by purchasing from you and have every reason to believe that you furnished 
me a better monument than I could have purchased here for twice the money. 

Yours truly, D. H. HARLOW.

with the prices of any other granite company, yet you can without hesitation order 
one of these monuments in any one of the sizes offered below, as we bind ourselves 
to shape, polish and finish it exactly as illustrated and letter it exactly as you may 
instruct us, box it carefully and ship it to you, and if it does not prove to be all and 
more than we claim for it, or is not lettered exactly as you have ordered it, you can 
hold it subject to our orders for disposal and we will not only agree to duplicate 
the order for you, but if you prefer will return you your money, including any freight 
charges expended. 


We do all the lettering for you at the small extra cost per letter quoted on 
page 73. 


Do not let the distance from Vermont cause you to fear heavy freight charges, 
but refer to page 108, where we quote the railroad rates of freight to a few towns 
in your home state, and you can readily calculate the saving we will make you 
after you have paid the freight.

$31.50 In Dark Barre Granite $60.00 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Granite Works in Vermont. 


Beautifully polished and traced on the front, rock faced in the most artistic manner 
on the back, ends and top; rock faced oa all four sides of the base‘with a beveled wash 
cut all around, just as illustrated, and if you desire it with a family name on the beveled 
edge base in raised letters we can furnish it as shown in illustration. To obtain the 
best results of our extremely low catalog prices, make your selection of this design 
exactly as we illustrate it, avoiding special changes which increase the cost. 


Intrust us with your order, accompanying it with our catalog price, adding 
sufficient to cover any inscription you desire, calculating the proper amount to remit us 
for the inscription by referring to page 73, where we quote all styles and sizes of 
inscription letters. Remember, we take all the risk; selecting with the greatest care the 
blocks from Best Barre Granite, free from flaw or blemish of any kind; cut, carve, 
shape, polish and finish it exactly as illustrated, letter it exactly as you instruct us, box it 
carefully and guarantee its safe arrival at your home station. You can open it, examine 
it, compare it with any other monument of like style and size, and if you do not find 
it the highest of high grade material, finished exactly as we illustrate and describe it, 
lettered exactly as you have ordered it, you can notify us and we will dispose of the 
monument at our own loss, returning to you the amount you have remitted us, together 
with any freight charges you have paid. Bear in mind this means a total loss to us, 
since after it is lettered the monument has no value to us or anyone else excepting 
yourself. Yet we are willing and glad to take this risk of insuring you against the 
assertions or attacks of all competition and against the loss of even one cent, if you do 
not find that you have made a large saving and that every word we say is true. 


You will find the freight charges will amount to next to nothing as compared with 
what you will save in price. The rate per 100 pounds to your state 1s very low, as 
shown on page 108, where we quote the freight rates to a few points. 


We use only Best Barre Granite, employ only the most skilled granite craftsmen, 
who execute our work second to none in the world. The highly polished face of this 
monument is the natural color brought out in polishing by these workmen, and is not 
colored with any false material so common among some granite shops to hide defects 
which will afterward appear from weather exposure. We quote below the measure- 
ments, weights and prices of this handsome monument.

A Splendid Value in Dark Barre Granite 
$37.00 to $99.00 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Granite Works in Vermont. 


s 
While our prices of $37.00 to $99.00, according to size selected, do not include the emblem 
or any lettering, yet we will be glad to make you an estimate for any emblem and any inscription 
you may desire carved upon this good sterling monument in any of its sizes. 


The upper block is the choicest of Dark Barre Granite, being full mirror polished on the 
front and top and finished with rock faced surfacing on the ends and back. It can be hand- 
somely lettered either in raised letters or in V sunk letters as desired. The bottom base contemplates 
Light Barre, to be in better contrast with the upper block or die. 


A simple, attractive, inexpensive and yet elegant tombstone in the first size, and monument in 
the four larger sizes. 


On page 73 we quote prices for carving letters in granite and will indeed be glad to have you 
furnish us with any inscription or inscriptions desired placed upon one of these monuments that 
we may calculate the cost and submit it to you, including with it what the freight would amount 
to to your home station. 


On page 108 we name the railroad rates of freight to a few towns in your home state, 
enabling you to readily calculate the large saving we make you in granite monuments. 


Let us have the opportunity and we will gladly make one of these monuments special to order 
for you, finishing it exactly as illustrated and described, lettering it exactly as you may instruct us 
and guaranteeing it to reach your home station free from mar, scratch or injury, or we will gladly 
return your money, only asking that you write us for shipping directions for its return to Vermont.

EVERYTHING SATISFACTORY AND SAVED 50 PER CENT. 
15 Center St., Springfield, Mass. 
Sears, Roebuck and Co., Chicago, Ill. 
Gentlemen:—The monument I ordered arrived in good condition, properly engraved and in every 
way satisfactory, and at a saving to me of at least 50 per cent. 


Yours truly, E. W. CARPENTER. 


A Splendid Monument in Dark Barre 
Granite at $27.00 and Upward 


Delivered on the Cars at the Quarry and Granite Works in Vermont. 


We will make one of these monuments to order for you, finishing it exactly as 
illustrated, engrave it with the inscription exactly as you instruct us, box it carefully and 
ship it to your home station with the distinct understanding that if it does not prove all 
and more than we claim for it, a large saving to you even after you pay the freight, 
you can hold the shipment subject to our disposal and our total loss and we will not only 
return the money you have remitted us, but will include the freight charges you have 
paid. This would mean a total loss to us, since it would be lettered for you and you 
alone, and could not be used for anyone else. Is not this sufficient evidence of our 
confidence and assurance that we will please you? 


The freight will amount to next to nothing compared with what we will save you on 
this splendid monument. See page 108 where we name the freight rates to a few points 
in your home state. 


See page 73 for extra cost for carving letters in granite.

in Vermont, this modern and popular low roll design is the greatest value ever 
offered by us or anyone else; cut from selected Dark Barre Granite, the roll pol-

on top of its large base it presents a most admirable grave marker or small 
monument.

while the beautifully polished roll is 10 inches in diameter and 18 inches long.

price charged by those who sell under the old time method of large profits, even 
after you pay the low rate of freight to your state, as quoted to a few points on 
page 108. 

We do all the lettering for you, in any size and style letters known to granite 
workers, and our low price per letter is quoted on page 73. 





We want your order, and to secure it we invite you to select one of these low roll designs. 
Send us the inscription exactly as you desire it, and if in “doubt about the size letters required we 
will determine for you which size will look the best. Send us our catalog price, and enough to

and put it on board the cars at the quarry in Vermont. When it arrives at your station you can 
examine it, and if you do not find it exactly as described, lettered exactly as you have ordered it, 
and equal in workmanship and quality of material to any granite memorial of like size you ever saw, 
if you are not thoroughly satisfied in every way, you can hold the shipment subject to our disposal 
and we will return your money, together with any freight you have paid.

Best Barre Granite Markers 


BEST VALUES EVER OFFERED BY US OR ANY OTHER GRANITE DEALERS. 
For those who desire grave markers separately from the family monument, or those ordering 
large family monuments and desiring to mark each individual grave, we call their attention to 
this and succeeding page. All of these markers can be furnished with a rough stub as illustrated 
on page 107, but we recommend that you order without the rough butt or stub extending below 
the ground, as it increases the weight and freight about three to four times. Set the marker 
on a concrete foundation made of crushed stone or gravel, slushed in with cement. This is 
superior to the rough butt and costs Jess. See page 108 for freight rates to your state, and 
page 73 for prices on granite letters. ee ne

lected, delivered on the cars at the quarry

highly polished top surface, and the extra 
charge for the lettering selected will be as

83-inch letters for a short name, the other 
sizes in like proportion

dered without the rough 
tending below the ground, Our customers 
much prefer to save the freight, and set 
the marker on it concrete foundation made 
of crushed stone Or gravel slushed in with 


markers be or-
